Now that Naxxramas has a release date for WoW Classic, you may want to start preparing for the upcoming encounter. If you are aiming to collect your Tier 3 set as soon as possible, you’re going to need to stockpile many materials in advance. Naxxramas set-pieces are acquired by turning in tokens, similar to Zul’Gurub and Ahn’Qiraj. Each class requires either Arcane Crystals, Arcanite Bars, Cured Rugged Hides, Mooncloth, or Nexus Crystals to obtain the Tier 3 set pieces. Here’s the full list of WoW Classic Tier 3 requirements by class.

All of the required items are top-end crafting materials. It will help if you know a miner, blacksmith, leatherworker, tailor, and enchanter. Otherwise, you’ll likely want to scoop this off the Auction House as soon as possible before the prices skyrocket. For those looking to buy their way to the top, it may be getting too late, as supplies are limited. Either way, this is going to be time consuming and expensive.

Set items do not drop directly in Naxxramas. Instead, it’s a token-based system similar to ZG and AQ. You’ll need to turn in a Desecrated Token and additional materials to an NPC in Light’s Hope Chapel to obtain your pieces. Desecrated tokens share between classic, with the class grouping beings:

• Warrior, Rogue
• Warlock, Priest, Mage
• Paladin, Shaman, Druid, Hunter
